Overall Satisfaction with MobileIron Acquired by Ivanti
Currently, we use Mobileiron for our mobile device management system. This means that we use it to manage all of our company-owned cell phones that the staff uses, which is about 900 phones. The business problem it addresses is the ability to properly manage company-owned phones, which includes unlocking the phone, resetting the phone, and assigning the phone to staff.
Pros
- Standardize and regulate apps on the phones
- Useful actions such as remote wipe phone, remote unlock, etc
- Set standards for security such as forcing an unlock pin
Cons
- Ironing out bugs - occasionally, Mobileiron will report that a phone successfully does a remote wipe when it has not been wiped and becomes unusable due to this.
- Their documentation is missing a lot, especially after the Ivanti acquisition.
- Impossible to chase down support, all of the support avenues now lead to dead ends after the Ivanti acquisition.
- + Easy move to working remotely: Mobileiron made the shift to remote work smooth
- - Unable to track lost/stolen phones
- + Blocking certain apps increases productivity
- Microsoft Endpoint Manager (Microsoft Intune + SCCM)
The main reason why we went with Mobileiron is [that] it was the cheaper option, but it was also extremely convenient that AT&T and Mobileiron had partnered in order to give us devices that already have Mobileiron provisioned onto them, leaving a lot less work for the IT staff on our end.
